April started off with Easter. This year we spent down at Kyle's parents house. We had lots of food, egg hunts and fun. Saturday morning we went to Capital Reef to have an Easter egg hunt for all the kid. It wasn't the warmest and they took forever to get started as you can see in the picture by Hayden's face. But once it got started he was loving the picking up game, of course with the help from his dad. Sure glad the Easter bunny found us all the way down south.
The very next weekend was spring break for the kids in school. Every year on this weekend my (Camille's) dad's side of family heads to the sand dunes. It is one of my favorite things we do each year. I think my uncle said my family has been going out there for over 30 something years. Same camp site, all though it only started with 3 trailers, now there is 7. We always have the Williams family softball game, but I have to say there isn't to many Williams left. There is mostly girls amongst us cousins and we all have new last names. This trips brings out the best in all of us. We have the biggest camp fires, we laugh our guts out and eat wayyyyy to much. My dad thinks all we go camping for is to eat and take naps. I love my family, I wish everyone could be as close as we are. Here is quit a few pictures of that trip.

Watch out we are all loaded. These last few years someone brings an old empty
propane tank to shoot. We had it at all different distances 420 to 550 to 1000 yards. Oh it's fun. |

Watching the horse shoe game. This was one of the few times it rained.
We were pretty darn lucky. Back at home it was pouring all weekend.
Good thing the Williams up above was watching out for us.
We sure miss Uncle Carl, G&G Williams and Uncle Gordon.

The same weekend Kyle was hunting his turkey. This year he was using his bow. He ended up resorting back to the shot gun on the last weekend. Good job Kyle.

And last, after seeing how much Hayden loves the dirt we bought him a sand box. Thank to our good friend for the sand, he can now make sand pies. We sure do love that kid.
